We will learn:


What happens to our brains when we’re in conflict.

The archetypes of difficult people so you can better identify the root of their behavior.

9 principles for getting along with anyone.


Sometimes people suck. They’re passive-aggressive, sometimes straight-up aggressive, they blame you for their wounds, they steal the credit for work you did, and that’s just at work.

It makes you wonder, are work relationships even worth it?

Turns out, they are, and we’ll get into the why in the episode but for now, just know that ignoring your colleagues because you have friends outside of work can do a lot of damage to your happiness and your career.

So if work relationships are so beneficial to us, what can we do? How can we get along, or at least work with, anyone, even difficult people?

That’s what we’re talking about today.

Our guest is Amy Gallo. She is a workplace expert who writes and speaks about interpersonal dynamics, difficult conversations, feedback, and effective communication. She helps people and teams better collaborate, communicate, and transform their culture to support dissent and debate.

She is also the author of two books: "Getting Along: How to Work With Anyone (Even Difficult People)" and the "HBR Guide to Dealing with Conflict".

We will learn:

How to plant seeds of change within your relationships

How to challenge your perspective and understand others more deeply

How to use an inside-out approach when dealing with disagreements


Have you ever been in the middle of an argument and felt like there was no way out?
The exhausting back-and-forth where nobody seems to give an inch can leave you wondering if there's a way to find common ground without giving up what you believe in.
We often try to show who we are by what we believe. And in a way, that becomes true. Because if we identify with our belief system, it's who we become and it's who others see us as.
But if we identify with a deeper set of values, then we start to see everything else as just the armor we wear. The outfit we have on.
Who we truly are is always beyond that. And if we can get over ourselves long enough to connect on that level, I honestly believe our entire world would change.
So that's what we're talking about today. Our guest is Justin Jones-Fosu. He's the embodiment of energy, both at home and on top of the world's highest peaks. He recently even conquered one of the famous 7 Summits. He's also the author of books like "Your WHY Matters NOW," "The Inclusive Mindset," and his latest thought-provoking work, "I Respectfully Disagree: How to have Difficult Conversations in a Divided World."

Communicating with Open Hearts and Open Minds for Respectful Disagreements with Justin Jones-Fosu • 351

We will learn:

When we should take a different approach to self-acceptance

How to develop an aspirational identity

The three pillars of self-confidence and how they can transform your self-image


Have you ever had that inner voice that whispers, “I can’t do this,” right before you’re about to take on something new?
Or maybe it’s louder, a persistent chant of self-doubt that seems to paralyze you, keeping you stuck where you are, not really moving forward in life.
But that’s not your true inner voice. It’s the reptilian brain. The part that’s been running the show since the caveman days. And if you don’t learn to manage that part of your brain, you never clear the weeds to hear your true inner voice.
So, I want you to imagine moving through life with a sense of purpose and alignment, making choices not from a place of fear but from a place of confidence.
That’s exactly what we’re diving into today. The concept of Wise Confidence.
Our guest is Giovanni Dienstmann. He’s been on the show before and has produced a masterclass for our membership. He is a self-discipline coach, meditation teacher, and author who focuses on the intersection between wisdom, peace, and power. Giovanni has helped executives, entrepreneurs, artists, and pro athletes to live a more focused and purposeful life.

From Self-Doubt to Wise Confidence with Giovanni Dienstmann • 350

We will learn:

The hidden impact of historical trauma and how it's shaping your current behaviors and anxieties

How the scars of your past can be converted into unique gifts and strengths

How love as an active process can change your mental health


Can you relate to this?
You grow up looking at your family, thinking, "Phew, thank goodness I'm not like them."
But then, one day, it hits you like a ton of bricks. You catch yourself saying the exact same things your mom used to say, word for word.
Now, it might not be a big deal when it's just a saying or something we tell our kids or the way we carry ourselves. But what if it's something that really impacts our daily life, like anxiety?
The truth is, you have the power to change course by reprogramming your patterns.
And here's the really cool part: when you do that, you're not just changing your own life - you're also changing the course for your entire family line.
Laura Rhodes-Levin is a licensed therapist who specializes in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, depression, and trauma. She holds a Master of Science in Counseling and is known for her unique approach in the understanding of anxiety and anxiety disorders. She is also the author of “The Missing Peace: Rewire Your Brain, Reduce Anxiety, and Recreate Your Life.”

Breaking the Cycle of Ancestral Trauma and Inherited Anxiety with Laura Rhodes-Levin • 349

We will learn:

Unexpected ways these ancient symbols can elevate your consciousness.

How your aura and chakras could be affecting your physical and spiritual well-being.

How to pull energy from higher dimensions to impact your daily reality.


Have you ever thought about why some days you feel perfectly in tune with the universe and other days it feels like everything is just against you?
What if there’s a deeper pattern at play, a blueprint that connects us not just to the random things that happen but to the very fabric of the universe itself?
This is called sacred geometry, and it's the secret language of nature. It's the ancient science that looks at how everything from beehives to entire galaxies follows the same universal patterns.
Spirit science describes it as the building blocks of consciousness. They say that by understanding these patterns, we can start to see where we've been, where we are now, and where we're headed in life.
I've known about sacred geometry for a while, but it wasn't until recently that it clicked for me how this knowledge can actually help us in our day-to-day lives.
Today we’re talking about how we can attune ourselves to align with the universal flow and even pull from higher dimensions.
Our guests are Gail and Gregory Hoag. They have over four decades of expertise in the realm of Sacred Geometry, and they have pioneered groundbreaking technologies and new discoveries that have changed thousands of lives all over the world.

Connecting to Higher Consciousness through Sacred Geometry and Energy Fields with Gail & Gregory Hoag • 348

We will learn:

How different personalities within the same body can exhibit contrasting health symptoms

The science of emotion-controlled consciousness and how your feelings shape your health

How to trigger deep, transformative mental states to enhance healing and emotional freedom


We know that the mind influences our health. The placebo effect shows how our beliefs can actually affect physical outcomes in the body.
So, how much do our minds shape our health? How can we change our thinking to live healthier lives?
That’s what we’re going to learn today. And it’s not just about "thinking yourself better." It’s deeper. It’s about uncovering those hidden, automatic patterns formed from past emotions and memories that influence how our body behaves and reacts today.
What if you could use this understanding to boost everything else you're doing for your health? We’re adding a new piece to the healing puzzle: the emotional part.
Our guest is Brandy Gillmore, a globally recognized mind-body healing expert who has profoundly impacted lives worldwide. Brandy's discoveries originated from her own debilitating injury, which led to a profound breakthrough in understanding of the power of the mind. Today, she works with top celebrities, CEOs, and individuals worldwide, showing people how to use the power of their minds to transform their health and lives. She has an award-winning podcast, "Heal Yourself. Change Your Life," where she guides listeners to release their physical pain in a matter of minutes.
